Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems and methods for pushing tokenized payments to resource providers for goods or services, after the goods or services are received. A user may make a transaction request including a credential and a resource provider ID (e.g., a resource provider location) via a server computer. The server computer may generate a token corresponding to the credential and transmit it to the resource provider using the resource provider ID. Upon receiving the token, the resource provider may enter a transaction amount and send it with the token in an authorization request message. The transaction can then be processed according to standard transaction processing methods, as if the resource provider had initiated the transaction request.

Embodiments provide method and systems for determining connectivity information of payment network for a reliable payment transaction. The method includes receiving a connectivity information request before performing a payment transaction via payment network. The method includes generating a connectivity check message including a plurality of connectivity status flags associated with payment entities in payment network. The method includes sending the connectivity check message to the payment entities in a predefined sequence of a payment transaction flow in the payment network. The method further includes facilitating setting up the plurality of connectivity status flags based on a successful communication of the connectivity check message between the payment entities in the predefined sequence. The method includes determining if each of the plurality of connectivity status flags is set with the success state. Upon determining the success state, the method further includes generating a successful connectivity information for performing the payment transaction.

The present disclosure relates to knowledge based authentication whereby a user is authenticated through third-party linked accounts. The method includes receiving an authentication request from a merchant computer, assessing one or more data fields to generate an authentication challenge for the user, connecting to one or more third-party account service provider to extract user-related data, generating the authentication challenge based on the extracted user-related data from the third-party account service provider, posing the authentication challenge to the user on a user device, receiving a response to the authentication challenge, and returning the authentication response to the merchant.

A fraud prevention system that includes a fraud prevention server including an electronic processor and a memory. The memory includes a feature drift hardened online application origination (OAO) service. When executing the feature drift hardened OAO service, the electronic processor is configured to detect, with respect to a first OAO model, feature drift in a dataset of an online application that exceeds a predefined threshold, generate one or more feature drift hardened OAO models that mitigate the feature drift, determine a fraud score of the online application based on the one or more feature drift hardened OAO models that differentiates between a behavior of a normal user and a behavior of a nefarious actor during a submission of the online application on a device and mitigates the feature drift, and control a client server to approve, hold, or deny the online application based on the fraud score.

An operating method of a payment terminal configured to perform a payment, including outputting a payment request command and a first payment token; receiving, from at least one payment information generator, a second payment token generated in response to the payment request command; and based on a determination the first payment token corresponds to the second payment token, outputting payment approval information

Systems, methods, articles of manufacture for authentication of payment cards. A server may assign, in a database, an expected card identifier to a contactless card, the contactless card associated with an account. The server may receive, from a client device, a request comprising a uniform resource locator (URL), a parameter of the URL comprising a card identifier, wherein the URL is transmitted by the contactless card to the client device. The server may extract the card identifier from the URL and compare the extracted card identifier to the expected card identifier in the database. The server may determine, based on the comparison, that the extracted card identifier matches the expected card identifier. The server may authenticate the request based on the extracted card identifier matching the expected card identifier, and transmit, to the client device, an indication specifying that the request was authenticated.

Embodiments of devices, systems and processes for substantially simultaneous payment verification using multi-factor authentication are described. A system may include a user payment system (UPS), a point of sale system (POS) communicatively coupled to the user payment system, and an issuing bank system (IBK) communicatively coupled to at least the POS. The IBK system may include an IBK hardware processor configured to execute first non-transient computer executable instructions including instructions for establishing a direct connection between the IBK and the UPS. The instructions may also include those for communicating, using the direct connection, a query to the UPS, receiving a first response, from the UPS, to the query, and based, upon the first response, determining whether to approve a given transaction. The direct connection may use a 5G wireless link. The query may be communicated to substantially simultaneously with receipt of a request to approve the given transaction.

A zero-step authentication system and method which uses wireless mobile devices to automatically make payments in a secure manner without requiring the customer to handle his or her mobile device. The system and method uses a payment facilitation device at the business location which automatically detects and recognizes registered mobile devices, authenticates the customer, and automatically deducts payments for purchases from a pre-authorized Customer Account. The Customer Account is managed by a payment processing server, which stores the Customer Account data, makes appropriate deductions, sends confirmation of deductions to the customer's mobile device, and automatically refills the customer's account by making pre-authorized charges to the customer's banking institution.

A computer-implemented method and apparatus are provided to reduce false fraudulent declines of transactions. Payment processor (PP) systems may be provided with a request acceptor and a replacement transaction generator. The request acceptor receives a notification of a decline of a first transaction attempted by a cardholder with a merchant, for allegedly fraudulent, and a request to determine whether the first transaction was falsely identified as fraudulent, and if so, to remedy the first transaction. The replacement transaction generator generates, in response to a determination that the first transaction was falsely identified as fraudulent, and the merchant is a false fraudulent reduction partner merchant, a replacement second transaction to replace the declined first transaction. The replacement second transaction may include a bypass authorization code, and made available to the cardholder to use to transact with the merchant bypassing the declined first transaction.

In one embodiment, a predictive contextual transaction scoring system receives transaction review data associated with person-to-person transactions from a marketplace, the transaction review data including feedback information relating to the person-to-person transaction. The system identifies contextual characteristics of the person-to-person transactions by analyzing the feedback information related to the person-to-person transactions. The system pairs a first party requesting a service to a second party providing the requested service by matching a contextual characteristic of the first party to a contextual characteristic of the second party. The system also predicts a transaction score for a new person-to-person transaction involving the first party and the second party, and provides the predicted transaction score to the marketplace to facilitate pairing of the first party requesting the service.
